Björnskfestivalen 14

Björnskfestivalen 14 will be the fourteenth edition of Björnskfestivalen, the music contest used to select the Björnsk entry for Maia Song Contest 14. The edition has been themed "Ny Lingua Franca" (New Lingua Franca), and in that theme, all entries must feature majority lyrics in a language other than English. This follows a complaint from the Regulatory Council of Languages (RCLB) that BTV has produced an over-representation of the English Language at the Maia Song Contest, resulting in the subsequent marginalisation of other languages spoken within Björnska.

Format
Six songs are to be performed on the night of the grand final, each by a different artist. All songs feature majority lyrics in another language.

Entry selection
BTV called for a submission of entries by interested artists and record companies, which were then narrowed down by a selection panel. In addition, multiple songwriting camps were held across Björnska, Dunwaye, Lazanistan, Emionia, and Amsok.

Presenters
Graham Norton will present the show this year, following a successful debut in the previous edition.

Final
A playlist of all the songs can be found here. Please note that Song 5, which does not have a music video on youtube, can alternatively be viewed in full here.
